2011 2yo's

[Godspot]

Well, I'm glad the flat season is over, as the last two meetings at Leopardstown have put me off it altogether. The only thing worse than being proved wrong is realising that those figures could be more accurate than I thought (which, looking at the Going Allowance used, I don't see how they can) which makes, imho, the whole game farcical. I really don't see how a Gr3 race, if as it says in the 'in-running comments' was 'run at a strong pace' comes out with a 54 ? ? ?

Was beginning to think I had over-done it a bit with that 129 about Lyric Of Light until Samitar's win in the Irish Guineas gave the form a boost & could be getting another tomorrow, what with 6th placed Devotion being 3rd top rated on my figs in the Oaks [40/1 available] & Richard Hughes looking a bit of a significant jockey booking & later in the Listed race Fallen For You a clear top rated after finishing 5th in the same race.
